School officials made the announcement at the end of NYU School of Medicine's White Coat Ceremony for first-year medical students on Thursday, notifying students and family members that it would cover the costs of tuition for 102 first-year students and 350 continuing students who have already completed some of their medical education.

The medical school said it is the first top 10-ranked medical school to provide full scholarships regardless of need or merit.

Areas doctors are being steered away from include primary care, pediatrics and obstetrics and gynecology. So far, NYU has raised $450 million of $600 million it says it will need to fund the program. By liberating both prospective and present medical students from the shackles of educational debt, a medical school can alter the topography of American health care by helping increase diversity in the provider population, improve access to care by minority patients, resolve the deficit of primary care physicians, and empower the battle against burnout.
